Edwards No. 8

Eek! Trash and I had out first ever 'date' out alone together at Eddies in *ahem* 1988...

I've had nightclubs go upmarket on me before. Or change their image, or get turned into a hotel/car park/chainstore/etc. I think this is the first one that's burnt to the ground!

crikey, that's a scary picture! From back in the day when presumably...?

Indeed. It's a very old picture - from about 1990. I like it 'cos it's very Derek Smalls from Spinal Tap (pointing at the audience). Although since then I've heard that this gesture was inspired by Steve Dawson of Saxon, so its Metal credentials are very sound! :-)

Blimey. And it goes to show goths aren't as flamable as I suspected.

I note that none of them have ever gone downmarket on you - does this say something about the kind of clubs you frequent? ;)

Definitely! And I wouldn't have it any other way :-P

We were actually supposed to be there on Saturday night as well, but we wimped out due to too much climbing and DIY causing a Quiet Night.

Some friends were there though...
